Don’t let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers of this world, rather than from Christ.—Colossians 2:8 (NLT)
Heavenly Father,
May my heart never be taken captive by any of the empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and the spiritual powers of this world. Let me only live in the Truth—Truth which comes from Your Word, Jesus Christ!
In my search to know the
Truth, let me not be satisfied to accept those philosophies that are merely
built on human thinking—but always look to Your Word to reveal Your Truth to me.
Don’t let me be misled by
man’s deceitful words—which, despite the fact that they may sound right, are only
counterfeits of the Truth, twisted by the enemy to entrap my heart in lies, in
order to lead me to destruction.
Keep me from blindly assuming that the traditions of
man are Truth—those practiced ideas that have been widely accepted as Truth,
but are not confirmed by Your Word—since I know that the spiritual powers of
this world are lying in wait to capture me and keep me from the freedom that I
find in Christ alone.
May my heart never be taken captive by any of the empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and the spiritual powers of this world. Let me only live in the Truth—Truth which comes from Your Word, Jesus Christ!
In the name of Jesus,
Amen.
